NASB | Hebrews 6:6 and then have fallen away, it is impossible to renew them again to repentance, since they again crucify to themselves the Son of God and put Him to open shame. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Hebrews 6:6 and then have fallen away--it is impossible to bring them back again to repentance, since they again nail the Son of God on the cross [for as far as they are concerned, they are treating the death of Christ as if they were not saved by it], and are holding Him up again to public disgrace. |
Subject: If you are saved can you lose it |
Bible Note: Friend, you sound like a very smart and enlightened individual and I would like to point a question to you that is rhetorical and doesn’t demand an answer. Of all the people in this world and all the knowledge of information they have, if it could to be measured, what portion of that whole do you suppose you would be blessed with? I hope, if you were honest, you would say a very infinitesimal part. That being the case, do you suppose it’s possible that there are some people out there that have had something revealed to them, from God, that hasn’t been revealed to you? Believe me when I tell you that you are barking up the wrong tree with the statement that you made. You stated, “I know that most people don't believe this because they've slipped down the slippery slope of 'total depravity', but the doctrine of eternal security is false”. Eternal security is non-existent and false to you because you haven’t got it yet! I believe that the grace of God and his plan for my eternal life are far greater then anything that I might do, that would cause me to lose it. If I thought I could loose eternal life I would be showing the epitome of arrogance by assuming that I could do something that God didn’t take into consideration when he saved me in the first place. It would be a slap in the face with regard to his omniscience. There is no sin, that in a time of weakness, I could commit that is so super that the death of Jesus didn’t take care of it. My savior is fantastic and thought of everything: Jesus did it all and the closer I get the more I realize it. 2 Tim. 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. How good is good enough? CDBJ |
